   I did some research on my own as I am currently applying to these "hacker accelerators." I think that Hacker School is unique in its lack of structure. This is the second article I have read in which a Hacker School fellow has co

   I don't think it has to be in-depth. I just made an implementation of Blackjack in Python. The rules are very easy to code up, and the AI (the dealer) is actually hard-coded by the rules, so no nasty trees or recursion. It also allowed

   I'm thinking of doing something similar. College and I are just not getting along right now. May I ask what your reasons for taking a break were?

   Thanks for the link, I'll try that. At the career fairs, the recruiters have indicated they filter out people like me who aren't juniors in college, so I'm so looking for someone on the inside to help me get past this barrie

   Ritik's awesome. I would highly recommend chatting with him if you're even the slightest bit interested.

   I honestly can't say that the Tenderloin is really coming around that much. I don't live in the city anymore, so maybe it has changed since I left, but I honestly would have never guessed Twitter worked in that building if I hadn&

   It sounds like you can give some solid insight on this issue. Could you please state your position instead of simply mentioning that other people are unqualified to do so?

   Thanks for the invite. We'd like to get a bus, if there's extra space you'd be welcome to join.

    Hello all, A group of students from UC Berkeley are looking to attend, but public transit is horrendous when it comes to getting to Cupertino. If your company (or you as an individual) would be interested in making a tax-deductible donatio

    So for C-x, I should hit the command key with my right hand?

    I'm learning Emacs for class, and I was wondering: do you use the same hand to hit the command/meta keys? For example, when I'm doing C-n or C-p, I am currently hitting the command key with my left hand, but the identifier w

    Ah, okay. I'm wondering if I should ditch this one and pick up an Intel-based Chromebook instead. I actually just need a cheap solution to program in this year, and I'd love to step away from Windows and start using Linux (since O

    As a budding coder, sometimes following PEP8 is harder than actually coding the stuff!

    I just did this last night on my Samsung Chromebook. One problem I immediately ran into was the difficulty of getting programs to run in Ubuntu because of my ARM processor. Any suggestions?

    The fine print says "power cord not shown." I'm assuming for this is the device itself? Shouldn't it be able to power through USB?

    Totally agree, but I just didn't realize how difficult it was to really master those gestures and harness their power.

    I'm not surprised that many of the launch apps are wonky. I developed something using a Leap for a hackathon, and the Leap is so accurate that significant time has to be invested to debugging and just playing around with the app to i

    I was thinking about you guys just the other day as I walked past your old place on Atherton. Been meaning to catch up; you want to grab lunch sometime soon?

    I think this company is going to explode. Smartphone usage is becoming more and more ubiquitous, but a lot of organizations simply don't have the funds or the expertise to convert their old website into a responsive one, or make a nat

    I faced this dilemna last year. I chose college, and it was t he best decision of my life. Yes, it's expensive. Yes, I could learn how to code by sheer willpower and practice. But the people I've met and the things I have lea

    This is definitely an issue, but I wouldn't say that Apple refuses to touch it. My power button crapped out on me several days ago, and I got it replaced under the stock warranty (NOT Apple Care) with no questions asked by making an ap

    I pass by this machine all the time, so hopefully I can offer some insight: * It's pretty much just a Makerbot in a enclosure. There is an Android tablet that you enter your information into which allows you to retrieve your object. * The

    The object is from the bottom up by layering extruded plastic. The nozzle that dispenses this plastic moves back and forth, just like a printer that has the ink nozzle slide back and forth on the carriage.
